❤️ Valentine’s Day isn’t just about romance — it’s about connection. ❤️

It’s about the small gestures.
The long hugs.
The laughter that only the two of you understand.
The quiet moments that say, “I’m here.”

Whether you’re celebrating with a partner, your friends, your family, or yourself — love is worth slowing down for.

Today, choose intention.
Choose appreciation.
Choose delight in the people who make your world softer and brighter.

And don’t forget… the healthiest love starts with how you care for your own heart. 💗 Happy Valentine’s Day!

✨ It was more than a halftime show. It was a moment of hope. ✨

Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl performance reminded us how powerful music can be. In a time when the world can feel divided, the stadium — and millions watching — felt united.

Different backgrounds. Different beliefs.
One stage. One rhythm. One shared experience.

For many, it sparked joy in the middle of heaviness. Representation. Pride. Energy. Connection.

And that matters.

At Wilson Counseling, we talk often about how shared moments of delight can interrupt hopelessness. When people feel seen, included, and connected — healing happens.

What did the performance mean to you? 💛

“𝐃𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐤𝐢𝐝𝐬 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤?”

This is one of the most common and emotionally charged questions couples face — and there’s no one‑size‑fits‑all answer. In this blog, we explore what research and therapy experience tell us about staying together for the children versus creating a healthier environment for everyone involved.

At Wilson Counseling in Texas, we help families understand how patterns, communication, and emotional safety impact children — and how the quality of the relationship matters more than just staying in it. Whether partners choose to stay and work on the relationship or separate with dignity and stability, children thrive when surrounded by thoughtful, intentional care.

🔥 Can scheduling s*x actually improve your s*x life?

In today’s busy world, intimacy often gets pushed aside by work, parenting, and everyday demands. If you and your partner have gone weeks—or even months—without physical connection, you’re not alone.

✨ “Think about what you felt the moment your child was born… that may be as close as you get to experiencing awe.” ✨

That rush of wonder, love, and overwhelm in the very best way—that’s awe. And it’s closely connected to what we call a Delight Practice: slowing down enough to revisit meaningful memories, letting your body remember how that moment felt, and allowing yourself to stay with the sensation for a few extra seconds. 🌿

These moments of awe—whether remembered or happening right now—can calm the nervous system, shift perspective, and support emotional well-being.

At Wilson Counseling in Texas, we believe cultivating delight and awe is a powerful part of mental health care and holistic healing.

💛 What memory fills you with awe when you return to it?

Is lack of s*x a reason to break up? 💭

Intimacy differences can be confusing, painful, and emotionally charged — but they don’t always signal the end of a relationship. In this therapist-informed blog, we explore how s*xual desire discrepancies affect emotional connection, communication, and relationship satisfaction.

Learn how understanding your partner’s needs, navigating healthy conversations around intimacy, and working with a professional can help you decide what’s best for your relationship. 💛

🐱 Today’s Delight Practice: unconditional love (and loud meows). 🐱

In his Delight Practice, Clayton Hutchins shares about his cat, Leo—and how Leo brings lightness, joy, and contentment into his everyday life. Whether it’s quiet companionship or Leo enthusiastically “yelling” for food, Clayton finds himself smiling, grateful, and reminded just how much he loves his furry friend. 😸

This is what delight often looks like: noticing the ordinary moments that soften us, make us laugh, and help our bodies feel calm and connected.

At Wilson Counseling in Texas, we believe mental wellness is supported when we slow down enough to appreciate the small relationships and routines that bring us happiness.

💛 Who (or what) brings lightness into your day?

✨ “Do you remember the last time you played like a child with abandon?” ✨

If not, this might be your invitation to bring more delight and wonder back into your life. These moments don’t usually happen by accident—they grow when we intentionally make space for play, curiosity, and joy. Just like anything meaningful, cultivating delight takes practice. 🌿

A Delight Practice helps train your mind and body to notice what feels light, playful, or awe-inspiring—even in the middle of busy or difficult seasons.

At Wilson Counseling in Texas, we believe reclaiming wonder is part of supporting mental wellness and emotional health.

💛 What would it look like for you to play a little today?
